Note to you: the Republican Party IS the Conservative Party. The 'Rat party IS the Liberal Party.

LOL, that's a pretty good joke. Got any more? The fact is that the Republican party doesn't want conservatives anymore, they just want votes. Doesn't matter how they get it or who they have to promise what to. Look at the latest batch of Senators and Representatives elected in '02. A handful of conservatives in the lot of them. The rest? Well they just promise what they can to get into office

I can understand your cynicism, but clearly there is a difference between RINO liberals and the Conservative mainstream of the party. If the folks who proclaim to be Conservative turn out to be anything but, work hard to beat them in primaries and replace them with the real deal. That's all we can do. Don't give up !
